Community Service

La Cava Jacobson & Goodis is happy to let our clients, friends and colleagues know that this year one of our charitable recipients was Toys-for-Tots.  We are keenly aware of the needs in our society, especially with the economic issues with which we have all been faced.  We recognize that we are extremely blessed, but there are countless others who are not in our position.

In lieu of fruitcakes, cheese baskets and the like, this year the Firm gave over 250 separate contributions to Toys-for-Tots.  Each donation was made in honor of an individual client, and each honoree received an email from Toys-for-Tots acknowledging the gift.  Over 250 children in the communities where our clients reside will now have holiday gifts, which they otherwise may not have received.

As you will see from the Firm’s other charitable work, an important focus of our giving is directed to children, most notably those in financial need and those in need of medical care that their families could not afford.  Thank you for being part of our extended family and playing a role in putting smiles on children’s faces in your communities.

La Cava Jacobson & Goodis supported the Kiwanis Club of Tampa’s 54th Annual BBQ Fundraiser. Boxed lunches were purchased by La Cava Jacobson & Goodis for the staff at our Tampa office. The Kiwanis Club of Tampa’s 54th Annual BBQ fundraiser supports the mission to serve the children and seniors of the Tampa Bay community.

La Cava Jacobson & Goodis participated in the St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital Foundation’s annual “Christmas in July” Donation Drive. Christmas in July enables the Child Life Team at St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital to offer fun and creative activities that bring the gift of “comfort and joy” for very special children during their hospital stays. As part of the event, April La Cava brought her mini therapy horses from Hold Our Horses, to interact with the children and volunteers.

La Cava Jacobson & Goodis is a proud sponsor of St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital Foundation, and looks forward to continuing to do their part to bring “comfort and joy” to these remarkable children in our community.

April La Cava along with her miniature therapy horses from Hold Our Horses, attended St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital Special CAR-NIVAL Prom. The hospital hosted the carnival-themed event for its teenage patients who were unable to attend their own dance and younger patients who due to chronic or life-threatening conditions, may never get the opportunity. Pediatric patients and their families stepped right up and had a ball during the drive-thru prom. The Child Life team at St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital, with support from the St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital Foundation, organizes special events like prom in an effort to provide patients with experiences that they might not otherwise have due to treatment and hospitalization.
